Chen Xu looked at the shock and disbelief in Liu Xiaoshang's eyes, and felt that it was really possible. I admire his memory a little bit, he can still recognize people who met once two months ago.
"Xiaoshang, hurry up, we're leaving." Behind, a middle-aged woman urged, who seemed to be his mother.
Liu Xiaoshang recovered from the shock and said, "Why didn't you say that you would bring someone over earlier? You were supposed to join the best man team. Oh, forget it, there is no room in the car. You can drive to keep up." Then, he ran back to the house, took a Zhang Xi sticker, and asked him to stick it on the front of the car.
"Where can I pick you up?" Chen Xu remembered that her girlfriend's house was quite far away.
"County town." Liu Xiaoshang said, and ran to the first car.
When Chen Xu heard this, he felt a little bit pained. He finally finished the winding mountain road, and now he has to drive back again.
He pasted the happy letter on the front of the car and said to Yang Jinxia, "Let me drive."
She obviously doesn't drive often. She drives very slowly all the way, and rarely overtakes. Especially on this mountain road, she drives a little tremblingly.
"Okay." Yang Jinxia handed him the key.
After the two got into the car, the convoy in front had already started, and Chen Xu drove to the end.
After the car turned a sharp bend, Yang Jinxia suddenly asked, "Why did your classmate look at me like that just now? I don't think I've seen him before?"
Chen Xu was stunned for a moment, and almost forgot about it, rolled his eyes, and suddenly had a reason, and said, "Do you remember the first time we met, I was eating with him at that time, and I saw him through the glass window?" You. He made a bet with me on whether I dare to strike up a conversation with you, and the loser will treat you to dinner. Then I won. "
"Oh."
Chen Xu felt that her "oh" had a lot of meaning, and somehow felt guilty. Could she still hear that I was lying? Thinking about it, I thought it was impossible. In reality, they had only met a few times, so how could they see through him so quickly.
Yang Jinxia smiled lightly, "Then I have to thank him, if he hadn't made a bet with you, we wouldn't have known each other."
Chen Xu didn't know how to answer, so he kept silent as usual.
Until now, he couldn't figure out why a person like her would treat him with such an attitude. It was precisely because he had doubts in his heart that he didn't know what attitude to use in response.
Some words, once broken, many things will taste bad, and they can never return to the original feeling.
Maybe, Yang Jinxia approached him for some other purpose, maybe, it was just out of curiosity. But, no matter what, he couldn't hate her like this, and even liked her a little.
He knew better, for him, Yang Jinxia was like a cloud in the sky, very beautiful. However, no matter how close he was, he couldn't really grasp it.
She was so mysterious that he didn't even know if the name Yang Jinxia was real.
Last week, out of some doubts, he asked Old Tang to check the license plate number of this Volvo. Old Tang's brother-in-law worked in the vehicle management office.
In the end, the owner's name was not Yang Jinxia, but another woman's name.
Perhaps this means nothing. However, it is impossible for him to take it seriously, but he has not broken it.
If one day, she suddenly disappeared, he would not be surprised at all.
...
The convoy of more than a dozen vehicles walked more slowly in order to maintain formation, and it took nearly forty minutes to arrive at the county seat. We drove all the way to a hotel that looked quite luxurious.
The scene of picking up the bride was a little hot, so Chen Xu didn't go up to join in the fun.
Liu Xiaoshang's popularity is good, there are seven or eight college classmates, more junior high school classmates, more than a dozen young people in black suits and sunglasses. The two bridesmaids who accompanied the bride couldn't stop it, but the groomsmen broke into the door in an instant and took the bride away.
The whole process took less than ten minutes.
It can be seen from this that Liu Xiaoshang made a lot of preparations to pick up the bride, so he was able to be so straightforward. The relatives of the bridesmaids on the woman's side, etc., probably haven't reacted yet.
After receiving the bride, the convoy turned around and drove back.
Chen Xu and Yang Jinxia didn't even get out of the car, they just ran along and got some soy sauce back.
Back in town, it was almost noon. After a burst of crackling firecrackers, all the main characters in the car got out of the car, and the driver parked the car.
The road in the town is not very wide, Chen Xu drove more than a hundred meters before finding a parking place.
"The street is so lively." After getting off the car, Yang Jinxia looked curiously at the crowded street opposite.
Chen Xu looked over and said, "That should be the main street. The New Year is coming soon, and those who do business and work outside have come back and come out to buy New Year's goods, so it's so lively."
Yang Jinxia asked, "Is this the fair?"
"Almost. But there are only a few days in a year. When the New Year is over and those people go out, it will become deserted again." Chen Xu said, seeing her so interested, said, "After dinner, let's go Take a stroll."
"OK."
The two walked to Liu Xiaoshang's house, and there was a group of people around the door, watching the fun.
The customs here are relatively friendly to newcomers, and they will not be made things difficult when they enter the door, and they will not make too much noise.
Seeing so many people, Chen Xu didn't want to squeeze in and suffer, so he stood at the door. Listening to the cheers that sounded from time to time inside, it should be that the couple is serving tea to the parents of both parties.
Yang Jinxia asked curiously, "Are there many rules when you get married here?"
"It depends on the individual. Some people are more particular. They need three mediators and six hires. There are also some unique customs. However, most people are not so particular. Basically, they go to the woman's house to pay the bride price, and choose a There is a feast on the day."
"Do you want to combine the horoscope?"
"Actually, it's just going through the motions. There are very few situations where the characters don't match. If there are, it's actually an excuse made by one parent who didn't like the other party."
While the two were chatting, the salutes in the house were finally over, and the people inside came out and greeted everyone to go to the restaurant, and the banquet began immediately.
The restaurant is not far away, and it takes a few minutes to walk there.
The Liu family booked a dozen tables in total, and Chen Xu and his college classmates happened to sit at one table. Today, there were a total of eight people in their class, including him, seven men and one woman, and two of them were a couple when they were in college. Couples, look at their intimacy, they are still together now.
After sitting down, everyone didn't say anything for a while, and each of them seemed a little nervous.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"You are Chen Xu's college classmates. Hello." Yang Jinxia greeted them generously, breaking the silence, but did not say her name.
"Hello." Several others responded one after another.
"I thought I could see his ex-girlfriend this time." Yang Jinxia said, glanced at Chen Xu with a smile on his face, "It looks like he didn't come?"
A few classmates, you look at me, and I look at you. Cai Bin, who was the most familiar roommate with Chen Xu, said, "She is not in our class, and she is not familiar with Xiaoshang, so she should not be invited."
Chen Xu glared at him, he sold himself out, it was so uninteresting.
Yang Jinxia was obviously very interested, and continued to ask, "Oh, isn't she pretty?"
Cai Bin said, "Of course not as beautiful as you."
"I don't believe it." Yang Jinxia glanced at Chen Xu again, and said with some resentment, "His eyes are so high, I chased after him, he is not tempted at all."
Suddenly, the whole table gasped and stared at Chen Xu dumbfounded.
